My finished 1932 Shelby Eagle build off entry, the FRANKENSHELBY ! This comfortable ride is based on a 87 year old survivor found pretty well preserved under 3 layers of gummy 'ol house paint. Fenders found repainted as you see 'em, except for respray / touch up. Very fond of "Mary Beth".

1932 Shelby "scimitar" frame and truss fork, bars, truss rods and goose neck.
Newer Murray? wheels Will be saved for another build.
Saddly, almost no original red paint remains...

Shelbys are such killer bikes. Excellent paint and work!
BRAVO!

You probably already know this, but Don't forget that when the Voting thread is created we will use the first pic from your Finished thread. I'm not suggesting anything is wrong with the current pic, just making sure everyone knows.
